Artist: REVOLTING COCKS
Album: GOT COCK? (DIGI)

Year: 2010
Media type: CD

Now that Ministry has been sufficiently put to rest, mastermind Al Jourgensen has shifted his creative focus to his longest-lasting and raunchiest side project, the aptly named Revolting Cocks. Prolific as ever, the band’s latest release is hot on the heels of 2009’s Sex-O Olympic-O, complete with a new set of tracks for the wayward of heart. Naturally, the band’s signature sound is still intact; deep synths, trashy guitars, distorted vocals, and pseudo-industrial rhythms spew forth at every corner, complete with raunchy, sex-driven lyrics and southern gothic swagger. In fact, even the titles of the album’s 11 tracks are filthy as can be, so one can only imagine what the songs hold in store for the unsuspecting listener. Exploring the sleazier side of sexuality with a set of hard-hitting tracks has always been the band’s strongest suit, however, and those not turned off by on-the-surface subject matter can easily enjoy Got Cock? for what it is; a screamingly good time. It’s impossible to resist the steady churn of “Trojan Horse” or the driving “Juice.” “Dykes” is another standout, unveiling a rather catchy chorus underneath a more cacophonous verse. True to the band’s style, the album concludes with a rather straightforward cover of 2 Live Crew’s “Me So Horny,” which appears as both a studio cut and an extended remix. Not the most surprising choice, given the band’s original breakthrough cover of Rod Stewart’s “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy,” but it’s certainly assuring to know that Jourgensen and Co. are still living it up as if it were 1989 all over again.
